Old Woodworking Machines

 

What you have here is a great treasure--a wonderfully organized site devoted to vintage woodworking equipment, complete with equipment description, images, company histories, and best of all, many, many scanned pdfs of company literature, including catalogs, diagrams, and operating instructions.

If you are even remotely interested in the history of industrial design, woodworking, or trade graphics from days gone by, you could do much worse than to kill a few hours exploring the OWWM site.  Highly recommended.
